The event that reshaped the DC Universe, now collected in its entirety in one massive omnibus edition!
Barry Allen works for the Central City Police Department, where he’s solved numerous criminal cases. As the Flash, he protects the innocent and battles evil. He is the Fastest Man Alive! Or he was…
